So the picture uploading doesnt happen from the link we request?
if so then we should request for test link after uploading the picture?
You'll know what I am saying when you start the process. As I said it is pretty straight forward. Don't worry about it.

So it looks like we need to be finishing the identification and taking photos within 15 mins and start the test or else the link expire if we dont get to the starting of test within 15 mins.
Good to know.
That's correct. But if the link expires, that's Ok. you can request the link again. and start over.

As long as you maintain your PR status, you should be good. But you'll can't attend the test, interview (if you get one) or oath when you are outside Canada. You'll have to be physically present in Canada for all of these events.
I'm still waiting for my PR to be renewed as well. Every thing is taking forever, i am tired :(

Do you not want to wait till the oath? People say the applicant will receive an invitation within a month from passing the test. I did the exam on the 4th of June 2021 and waiting for the oath. Hopefully it will not take long.
That is not always true, you may wait for couple months after you finish the test to get any update.

On this link, CIC says "The ceremony will usually take place within 3 months after your test. " ....but looks like this was before Covid. Because if you look at the spreadsheet, you'll find lot of people who are waiting for more than 3 months.

A month? Not sure who told you that but it is very unlikely (unless yours is an urgent application). There is a significant backlog for oath. I think September applicants can expect between 3 - 5 months from test to oath unless they somehow suddenly increase the number of oath invitations.
